I have a lot of respect for the guy (he's a true legend), but I became thoroughly bored with his music long ago. Twelve bar blues gets pretty darned redundant, especially if you play it, before too long. I'd rather listen to Robert Johnson. My favorite blues musicians are Stevie Ray Vaughan (the best of all time, in my opinion) and Taj Mahal, who is actually a local hero.
- By the way, he can't play rhythm guitar – just pentatonic (blues) scales.dog_opus
- I always liked Buddy and ALbert King better as guitar players, but BB got the voice and the songs...TheBlueOne
- Yeah, his voice is awesome for the blues. The last bar band I played in did a alternate version of "The Thrill Is Gone," which was fun.dog_opus
